Who will it be?

Never let it be said that Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour doesnt love building suspense. His office sent out an email blast yesterday saying their will be a huge party switching announcement on Monday from a democrat in the legislature. The announcement really won't change anything. The GOP essentially runs the state senate now even though they dont have a numerical majority and in the house it will only get them to 50 seats(which would be a record)but they'll still be 11 short of a majority. About the only thing this looming party switch will do is provide the GOP with a little more momentum as they head into the fall elections.
